- **Event Description**: A TWO-DAY workshop for building your own analog synthesizer in a small box or tin. E-waste gives each synth its own unique sound and style.About this EventIn this TWO-DAY workshop series, “Pot & Switch”, participants will be guided through the process of building their own analog synthesizer.Wed Sept 30 7-10pm&Sun Oct 4 6-9pmInstead of using all new materials, we will be salvaging as many potentiometers (knobs) and switches as we can from e-waste to create the interfaces of our synthesizers, resulting in each person’s synth being unique in its sound and playability.We will be using a CD40106 IC chip to breadboard a 6-voice oscillator circuit to which we will be connecting our found components, then we will house this all in a small box or tin. We will provide tins and boxes for you to choose from, or feel free to bring your own if you have one that you specifically want to use!As always, NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY!This class is for anyone interested in hardware hacking, electronic music, e-waste salvation, and creative technology!Your instructor:The Disengineering Society is a hardware hacking collective and a publisher of educational materials. Their textbooks reimagine educational literature through idiosyncratic construction and site-specific applications. Disengineering’s publications go hand-in-hand with their widely offered workshops that emphasize chaos, destruction, electronic screeches, and a devout commitment to combating “planned obsolescence”.This is a masks optional workshop.As with all NYC Resistor events, this class is 18+ and governed by our Code of Conduct. The Code of Conduct, as well as accessibility information, can be found at www.nycresistor.com/participate/. Please note that refunds must be requested 24 hours in advance.
